After a moment, Joy looked away. She walked over to the table and took a small sip of her long-cold coffee. "I don't know anyone named Arthur or Alaric," she said indifferently.
"But just now, I thought I heard something upstairs. Perhaps you should go check there."
Athena smiled. "Thank you."
She turned and walked away.
As she opened the door, Joy's voice sounded from behind her. "Once you find them, make sure to keep an eye on them. If they wander off again, you might really lose them for good."
Athena did not turn around. "Thanks for the reminder. I'll keep an eye on them."
Joy added coldly, "And remember our deal. With an amount as huge as this, if you break your word, the compensation won't be something you can handle."
Athena said calmly, "My memory is very good. I hope your memory is as good as mine."
With that, she strode out and closed the door behind her.
After climbing up one floor, Athena pushed open the door to the room directly above Joy's and saw Arthur and Alaric lying on a bed.
The two of them seemed to be sleeping well. Their chests were heaving slightly, and they were even snoring softly.
Athena walked over and carefully examined their physical signs. She checked their pulses, eyelids, and mouths, confirming that neither of them had been poisoned or injured before she finally relaxed.
Afterward, she spent a few minutes carrying both men downstairs one by one, stuffing them into the car, and driving off.
In the darkness, Joy stood by the window, peering through the curtains, watching Athena's every move.
"I knew she wasn't ordinary," Joy murmured. "But she really isn't an ordinary person. Should I investigate her or not?"
She pondered for a while.
Joy shook her head slowly. "Some things are better left unknown for now."
Downstairs, Athena's car drove away.
Her meeting with Joy this time was peaceful. There were no fights or arguments.
However, if anyone heard her conversation with Joy, they would definitely be shocked.
That was the Rose family they were talking about!
The Rose family was one of the most mysterious, wealthy, and influential families in the world.
The family's history of success was as old as the rise of wealth in the Western countries, with a standing in the West that rivaled even the oldest royal families.
It was often said that multiple financial empires controlled the strings behind Aeloria's government, and the Rose family was certainly one of them.
Almost every bank, prestigious university, major media outlet, and large corporation in the West had investments or even controlling stakes from them.
The Rose family's influence could be traced to political revolutions, unrest, or policy changes in various countries.
Despite their considerable power, the family maintained a low profile, rarely stepping into the public eye.
Most of their influence was exerted through intermediaries who shape decisions in Congress, banks, and large corporations. Little was known about the family's members, their identities, or their positions.
However, Joy was not just a member of the Rose family—she was also a potential future leader of the family's most powerful branch: the Council of Elders. This meant she could one day become one of the highest authorities in the family.
Such an identity was shocking enough.
What was even more astonishing was that Athena not only knew all of this but also had the ability to control Joy.
Athena was not proud of this.
She deliberately stalled for time and waited for the Donovan family to fall asleep before returning to the villa.
Before returning to the villa, Arthur and Alaric woke up.
They only remembered going to Kitmore University to visit some friends, but not finding them, so they ended up eating and drinking in the cafeteria, having a few drinks. Without realizing it, they drank too much and forgot everything.
They even forgot who they were looking for.
After asking a few more questions and confirming that Arthur and Alaric had completely forgotten about Joy and how the female lead of "Chasing the Horizon" resembled Zilvia, Athena finally felt a little more at ease.
"You two should go back to sleep. Don't stay up late playing games," she reminded them.
Arthur and Alaric, feeling guilty for having caused Athena so much trouble by making her go to the school so late to pick them up, obediently nodded in agreement. "Okay," they said.
Athena thought to herself, 'They must have been hypnotized.'
Joy's hypnosis was very powerful.
This way, many things could be explained.
